A historical look at High Point, NC through Old Post Cards.
Among the first Europeans to settle Guilford County were Quakers and German immigrants. High Point was located at the highest point of the 1856 North Carolina Railroad between Charlotte and Goldsboro where it intersected the 1852 Great Western Plank Road
. Its central location and transportation allowed for the delivery of raw materials like cotton and lumber and processed goods in and out of the city and contributed to its early growth.
Settled before 1750, High Point was incorporated in 1859. Before it became a major manufacturing center, the most important industries were tobacco, woodworking and textiles. The first of many High Point furniture factories was opened in 1889.

How grand our home used to be! It's not anymore, and that makes me very sad. It is a furniture ghostland.

This is so beautiful! It made me a bit homesick. The postcard that blew my mind was of The Depot. **marg3ll- not all the buildings are gone.

Thank you so very much. Too bad its all gone. All of it, except for City Lake and a few churches. Great to see why my grandparents and in laws loved this town.
